1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Changes have occurred recently in the teaching syllabus in medical schools across the United Kingdom. These changes have taken the format of modular teaching with group participation and the grouping of topics such as anatomy, physiology and clinical medicine being combined. A short study was designed to assess if students of the new curriculum were competent at answering clinical questions that occur frequently, and common prescribing requests.
